What is the appropriate remedy for sin?We have been delivered by grace. If confessing sin needed more work than Christ sufficient atonement then private confession would not adequately secure our gracious acceptance. But since Christ has already completed the work necessary to generously forgive all of our sins, our private confession is adequately secured on the secure foundation of divine grace and not grudging acceptance. But if we have no desire to properly receive that grace then we undoubtedly prove we are cursed.
If we retain a official charge against Gods worthy people, we are cursing ourselves. Every person in Christ enjoys the grace that generously provides divine forgiveness when we are regenerated. We merely enjoy a life of repentance by living in open ended grace. Grace that atones for all our sins. But a person cursed will retain the charge against the saints. This is the person who will refuse to confess his sin. This is a false believer. He will need more than an ordinary private confession to God.God will curse the covenant breaker. We must protect ourselves from harm by the pronouncement of the curse and not trust in charging people.
